Petals on the Wind

Yuban3 — Tue, 27 May 2014 11:21:24 GMT

Anybody watch this on Lifetime last night? It's the second story in the "Flowers in the Attic" trilogy.

I watched it.

Yes, Christopher and Catherine get their freak on in the story.

I read all three books when I was in high school, and to be honest, I really didn't remember too much from the second book.

Lifetime will also do the last book, "Seeds of Yesterday". I don't know when that will air.

Even though these books are about incest, it kind of makes it seem almost ok due to the circumstances. To me that's good writing. The later books not written by VC Andrews are similar but not as good though. The subject is always incest of some sort. I read many of the early ones back then but lost interest in them. They all would make good lifetime movies.

I watched last night too, I read the books when I was in high school but I don't remember the 2nd book as much as the first one...Seeds of Yesterday, I never read that one if it was part of the series.

They re-aired "Flowers" as a lead-in to "Petals" last night.

I'm sure Lifetime will re-air "Petals".

I have not read the book series, but as of last night, only for the one miscarriage when they were very young, they did not have any children together. The two boys were Cathy's from her affair with the ballet dancer, and the 2nd, her mother's husband!

I really enjoyed Petals on the Wind, but was a bit surprised at the end, looking forward to the next series!

The content just doesn't appeal to me enough to be interested although I do really like Ellen B.
